Summary from the Troubh Heisler Attorneys

Humes v. Walmart Assoc. Inc.- Where there was competent evidence in the record to support the 312 IME conclusion that the employee’s November 20, 2020 work injury resolved by December 2, 2020, and that record demonstrates the ALJ’s adoption of the 312 IME opinion did not lack a reasonable basis, the ALJ was not required to accept a contrary opinion by a treating health care provider.
